United States Collection. Several hundred mostly unused stamps in hingeless album, many better items but in very mixed quality, starts out with two off-cover New York Postmaster Provisionals plus one on cover, then Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8A, 13, 15 and 17, 1857 Issue with some better 1c Types, incl. a defective original gum single with 1988 P.F. certificate identifying it as the very rare Ty. Ia Scott 19 (catalog value $40,000.00) which it is not in our opinion, better 5c colors with Brick Red and one that appears to be Indian Red, 30 with certificate, 31-33, 37, 38, 39 (defective), 40, 62B, 67 (appears unused but most likely is not) and other 1861-66 values, Grills with 79, 83, 84, 85B, 85C, 85E and nearly all E's and F's, 102, 1869 Pictorials complete with extra 90c, some 1869 Re-Issues, nearly complete Bank Notes used or unused (no Special Printings), Columbian 235P2, unused stamps to $4.00 complete, 1894-98 unused or used, 1c-$2.00 Trans-Mississippi complete unused, 1902 to $1.00 and then largely complete from there to 1934 less the obvious rarities and some others, Air Post used and unused complete to 1933 featuring a used 1930 Graf Zeppelin set, some Special Delivery, decent Postage Due, Offices in China complete, partial set of Officials with some better values, some Newspaper Issues and Parcel Post unused to 75c, a difficult collection to evaluate but a very valuable collection nonetheless with useful material, accompanied by over 75 certificates, most of which are 2007-09 P.S.E.'s
